Our country is socially impacted by the global use of TikTok. As a younger generation, TikTok is the way we express our opinions, emotions, how we make changes and impacts we want to see in the world. I believe our first amendment right to free speech is being violated by the banning of this app. As the country of the free ; life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is being ripped from us. If this app ban is not fought effectively, we will loose our freedom to speak our minds with passion. Now is the time to act to protect our right to expression.
